“I was wondering if you could add the “Tales of an Extraordinary Girl” book series by Gena Showalter.”

You bet Dixie! This one looks right up my alley. 🙂

About the series:

Earth, Wind and Fire aren’t just a band anymore!

Used to be my greatest achievement was holding a job more than three days. Now suddenly I can shoot fireballs, chill your drink, or blow-dry your hair at fifty paces with a blink of my eye!

It all started when this crazy scientist dropped something in my Grande Mocha Latte. Of course I got wicked sick. Next morning I’m waking up with this total hottie bending over me. He tells me 1) his name’s Rome Masters, 2) he’s a government agent and 3) I can control the four elements with a thought.read more

Wow. I just realized the last time I played in the author blogs, and news stuff, was back in May!? What!? Could that be? I think so, ’cause I just realized, there’s lots o’ stuff going on with them these days, and I’m getting antsy for some of these books!!!

Stacia Kane announced the title for Book #5 in the Downside Ghosts series —> Chasing Magic. She also provides us a link to a HUGE excerpt to her upcoming book #4, Sacrificial Magic (expected release date is killing me!! March 27th 2012) – whhhhyyyyyy!!!!???? (that’s in my whining voice)

Richelle also blogs about her upcoming release Shadow Heir (January 3rd 2012). It will be the last book in Eugenie’s Dark Swan series (book# 4) but it will be a HUGE book (since it covers material that might have made it into a 5th book). What’s in store for possible future “adult” series? She is kicking around a few ideas, but with the arrival of her new baby, things are a bit “up in the air” for now.

Gena Showalter is working on a spinoff for her Lords of the Underworld series (angels!!)

“…all I can really say is that the angels will be at the helm, the first book will be released sometime in 2012, and the Lords will have cameos. We’re still hammering out a lot of the details.”read more

The Darkest Kiss (Hqn)
Hrmm…. good, but not overwhelmingly good. I wanted to finish it and I enjoyed the story progression (lots of little side things going on), but I found my self easily setting it aside. That first kiss had me swooning (I LOVE a resistant hero). But…. I didn’t fall in love with Lucien. I blame Anya for that. Maybe it’s cause she’s already an immortal female, and I’m jealous of ’em. Yeah, yeah…. you already knew that 😉 After two years of reading this genre, I’ve deduced that I prefer books with male immortals (of any kind) who fall for mortal females. Plain ol’ human females, or *special* humans are good too. I can relate to ’em a little more. Okay… perhaps I’m being a *little* catty.read more

The Darkest Night (Hqn)
What is the difference between a bossy guy that makes you growl with anger and a bossy guy that makes you purr? Well… the purr-inducer is a paranormal hottie that doesn’t know any better. He doesn’t “get” us modern women and he just can’t help his bossiness. Hundreds of years (thousands?) spent in torture, with out love will do that to a guy. Oh… and he’s irresistably intense.

Hey! What?! *blush* I’m making excuses for this guy? I suppose I have a need to explain and rationalize my reason for crushing on this “hero” so badly (cause really, I should have wanted to kick him you know where!) I mean, I found myself frequently appalled and yet completely… *ahem* smitten. Yeah. Smitten. Let’s go with that 😉read more

I’m amazed at how many deals are out there! Still. Have you seen my main bargain list? It’s HUGE, and yet, I’m still adding to it. YAY us! Some of the best stories I’ve read, I’ve found this way. So here are some more (even a full length book and some short stories from Gena Showalter’s Lords of the Underworld series, and a full length by Alexandra Ivy).

Devoured By Darkness by Alexandra Ivy (I’m loving this series, and actually, almost all of the ebooks are discounted, but this one is VERY bargain-y!!)

The Darkest Fire by Gena Showalter “He is the guardian of hell, more monster than man. She is the goddess of oppression, more angel than woman.”

The Darkest Prison by Gena Showalter “Once, Atlas, the Titan god of Strength, was the Greek goddess Nike’s slave. Now, he is her master. And soon these sworn enemies destined to destroy one another will be forced to risk everything for a chance at love…”

The Amazon’s Curse by Gena Showalter: “Zane, a fierce vampire warrior, has been enslaved by the Amazons. Nola, a lovely Amazon soldier, has been cursed with invisibility. Now, these two stubborn enemies must overcome the pasts that haunt them and embrace a love that can set them free…”

The Darkest Whisper (full length!) by Gena Showalter: “Bound by the demon of Doubt, Sabin unintentionally destroys even the most confident of lovers. So the immortal warrior spends his time on the battlefield instead of the bedroom, victory his only concern… until he meets Gwendolyn the Timid. One taste of the beautiful redhead, and he craves more.”

One and Only: Brotherhood of Blood, Book 1 by Bianca D’arc “Vampire, lover, savior. He’s all that… and more.”

Rare Vintage: Brotherhood of Blood, Book 2 by Bianca D’arc

Phantom Desires: Brotherhood of Blood, Book 3 by Bianca D’arc

Promise (Soul Savers) (self-published but lots of great reviews) – “When Alexis Ames is attacked by creatures that can’t be real, she decides it’s time she learns who she really is, with or without the help of her mother, who guards their family’s secrets closely.” Paranormal romance (angels, demons, love, and all that good stuff!)

The Emerald Talisman (When Julia Parker, a sixteen-year-old with the paranormal ability to read people’s emotions, accidentally falls prey to a vampire, she becomes aware that sometimes animals and people aren’t who they seem. To survive, she must rely on her psychic abilities to help her decide who to trust and who to love.)
